The Netflix documentary "Making a Murderer" is set in Manitowoc County. It tells the story of Steven Avery, a man who stayed in prison for 18 years for a rape he didn't commit, but was later convicted of murdering 25-year-old photographer Teresa Halbach.

The series suggests the possibility that Manitowoc County sheriff's deputies planted evidence in the case.
